Leland Bahe was in court Sunday morning in connection to the crime, but it was not his first time facing a judge. Court officials said Bahe has been convicted of 36 misdemeanors and four felonies. Those convictions include tampering with evidence in 2006, and burglary and forgery in 2008.

This time, the charge is aggravated battery with a deadly weapon in connection to the Nov. 8 stabbing. Police said Bahe, who also goes by the name "Summer," walked up to his victim near the corner of Central Avenue and Louisiana Boulevard and sliced him in the neck.

According to the criminal complaint, the victim told police Summer was dressed as a female and had a "crazy look in his eyes" before the stabbing last month. The victim was left with a gash 2 inches long and 2 inches wide before the Bahe allegedly took off, police said.
